I always thought the main benefit of a house was a little buffer space from my neighbors. Houses are also a lot of work to maintain. We didn’t start in a house I liked. Our first two houses were fixer uppers. I learned to do a lot myself. After 15 years, our third house is finally somewhere I enjoy living. The main thing to pay for when buying a house is location. If it in a good location, even if it isn’t perfect, it will still sell. I guess I also don’t think of life with kids as stable. As much as I love them, their schedules are always changing. I find it rather hectic.
